Summary of trial on AmmoLand blog to read more

Will Judge McGlynn’s final comments indicate how he will rule in this case? Will he issue a permanent injunction on final judgement and move the case up to the appeals court? AmmoLand will keep a close eye on this case. A permanent injunction would stop enforcement of the law, but likely go to the appeals court and then up to the Supreme Court.​

Illinois:

Want to look at a gun in a LGS? Show your FOID first
Want to order some sale ammo online? Send them copy of FOID first....if it is still in stock by then.
Feel like using a range? present FOID at desk
Want to buy a suppressor? Hahahaha, NO!

How long does it take to get a FOID? Depends. Could be more than half a year.

On the flip side. Most country kids had a foid by their early teens. And as long as you never let it expire, there's never any gaps. Though that means doing your renewing a year early to outsmart the ISP foot dragging. The last public sales that I did was a few years ago, before the background check law. I just took a picture of his Foid for storage.
Though I'm sure all us hicks downstate were a lot more lax than they were up in the big C.
